You Wear it Well

Rod Stewart

 DG
 I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon
 AD
but to settle down and write you a line
 G
I been meaning to phone ya, but from Minnesota
 AD
 Hell, it's been a very long time

 A
You wear it well
 EmD/F#GA
little old fashioned but that's all right

 DG
 I suppose you're thinking how Betty's thinking
 AD
or she wouldn't get in touch with me
 G
For I ain't begging or losing my head
 AD
sure do want you to know

 A
That you wear it well
 EmD/F#GA
 There ain't a lady in a land so fine oh my 

 D
 Remember their 
 G
 basement parties, your brothers courted
 AD
 All day rock and roll shows
 G
the homesick blues and the radical views
 AD
 haven't left a mark on you

 A
You wear it well
 EmD/F#GA
little loud at times but I don't mind

 GA
But I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
 GA
but I blew it without even trying
 G
Now I'm eating my heart out
 AD
 trying to get a letter through

 EmD/F#GA
 Since you've been gone it's hard to carry your weight

 D
I want to write about the 
 G
 birthday gown that I bought in town
 AD
that you sat down and cried on the stands
You knew it didn't
 G
 cost me up, but for what it's worth
 AD
you made me feel like a millionaire

 A
and you wear it well
 EmD/F#GA
 Madame Onassis got nothing on you

 DG
 When my  coffee's cold, and I'm being told
 AD
that I gotta go back to work
 G
So when the sun goes low and you're home alone
 AD
 try not to think of me and laugh

 A
and I wear it well
 EmD/F#GA
 I don't mind if you call collect

 DGA
But I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
 GA
but I blew it without even trying
 G
Now I'm eating my heart out
 AD
 trying to get back to you

 EmD/F#GA
 Since that's been said, what's left to address?
